knapplc Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 This is the GOP 2024 frontrunner. City of Albuquerque refers Trump campaign bill to collection agency The City of Albuquerque referred the Trump campaign to a collection agency. The city is seeking approximately $200,000 following the president's rally in Rio Rancho in 2019. Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller said the bill covers security costs that stem from the former president staying in a downtown Albuquerque hotel overnight. The security cost include blocking off parts of downtown, paying police officers overtime and covering the paid time off expenses of city workers who had to stay home. "We actually treated it like any other debt, and so it goes through a somewhat process where you send a bunch of letters out," Keller said. "We got no response from those letters. And then automatically, it does go to an agency that helps try and collect debts, and so that's those annoying phone calls you get that say, you know, you owe money to so-and-so like now, Trump is getting those." Most of America found out about the debt when Keller appeared on the Daily Show to talk about the bill. Despite the newfound attention to the bill, Keller doesn't expect the collection agency to get money out of Trump. "Given what else has happened, I mean in terms of, even his own campaign owing money to donors and lots of shady stuff there, so unfortunately I don't really expect us to get paid," he said. "But it's important that we do, and you know, we would do it for anyone else, so he's no different." KOB 4 reached out to the Trump campaign to find out if it plans on repaying the City of Albuquerque. The campaign replied with an email that stated the campaign is "reviewing your request." 2 Link to comment

It's always precious when a billionaire (that's laughable) doesn't pay a debt and wants the tax payers of a community to just foot the bill. 1 Link to comment

Hes done this in every city he held rallies in. Maybe these cities should stop letting him come to their city if they dont want to be stiffed. Hes a conman. This is what conmen do. 4 Link to comment

knapplc Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 So, the outside team Facebook assembled to take the heat off their banning decisions punted the question back to Facebook. Zuckerberg's worst nightmare. As of now trump is still banned, but the committee wants FB to answer why it banned him in a manner inconsistent with its terms of service. And they gave FB/Zuckerberg six months to answer the question. Bear in mind, this is entirely a mess of Zuckerberg's own making. None of this has to happen - trump incites insurrection and poses a risk of physical harm with his baseless ego-centric lies, and while he remains unwilling to apologize or stop with those lies, he remains a threat. But banning trump outright might piss off all the trumpets who get their daily dose of misinformation from Zuckerberg's site, so he has a quandary. Because the solution really is this simple: 1 1 Link to comment
